Usage of zinc-silicate coatings in friction connections

Usage of zinc-silicate coatings as anti-corrosive protection of friction connections results in reduction of construction time and provides protection from corrosion. Such protection system has a number of advantages in respect to the widely implemented metallization procedure, prevalently in terms of speed of implementation, required training of the workforce and cost. In this paper were pre- sented friction coefficients for different systems of anti-corrosive protection of friction connections, with emphasis on the zinc-silicate coatings and their technical characteristics and implementation methods.
